7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Looking very progressive and impressed in how he came through to beat a subsequent winner at Hexham one month ago on his first try over this far (good ground); could well take the 7lb rise in his stride. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Added to debut bumper win, hitting the line strongly to score at the third attempt in a handicap hurdle at Kelso (2m5f, good) 31 days ago; moves up in trip (ideal on pedigree) from a 6lb higher mark, with that form franked at Southwell by the third-placed Larkfield Lusive. |

Won a bumper here last April (2m, good); best run over hurdles when second to a hat-trick scorer at Catterick in January (2m3f, soft); pulled up last time (never travelled); could bounce back. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Made all at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in May when back over hurdles and runner-up at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) since; she can make mistakes and fell on her last chase start in December, but won over fences at Cheltenham (3m1f, good to soft) previously; respected under regular rider Lily Bradstock. |

2nd 5 |
7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Fell in her final chase run after a career-best win in a 3m1f handicap at Cheltenham; she's good over hurdles as well, making it 4-8 in this discipline when beating one other finisher by 30l at Fontwell last time out (2m5f, good); the handicapper didn't go overboard with a 5lb rise. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who showed career-best form when game winner of Cheltenham chase (3m1f, good to soft) off today's mark in October; not seen since first-fence fall in December, though, and may not be ideally suited by this drop back in trip. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Four wins since May divided between hurdles and fences; had a nice bit in hand when beating three rivals (including Sony Bill) over C&D 11 days ago and a 4lb rise could have been worse; on a roll and firmly in the mix. |
5/2 |

15th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Two hurdle wins since May and he squeezed in a successful chase debut at Worcester (2m7f, good) in between; latest third over hurdles here (about 2m7f, good) was a solid effort last Tuesday and he's a firm candidate again; due to go up 1lb. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Bids for a four-timer after two wins over hurdles and a chase success in between; had nothing in hand last time at Worcester (2m7f, good) and he'll need another career best off 4lb higher. |

Three-time hurdle winner who was close to his peak form when second to Kiwi De Cotte over what turned out to be an extended 3m at Market Rasen (good) three weeks ago; versatile ground-wise; no surprise if he features. |

1lb higher than for the 3m win at Aintree last October (good); hasn't approached that form in his only three races since but this is a drop in grade; should go well. |

12st 0lb |
Uttoxeter winner off 8lb higher for Olly Murphy in 2024 but pulled up in that same race this summer on second run for this yard; however, did run well for a long way the time before and that was a Class 3; possibilities under Brian Hughes. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |

Rampant in sub-3m good-ground hurdle races and chases last summer, and has the beating of Yippee Ki Yay on a line through Macklin, whom he trounced at Exeter last time (3m, good); still fairly lightly raced over this sort of trip, and drying forecast rates a big plus. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Ridden for over a year by Isabelle Ryder; 2-6 at Uttoxeter, including 21l win in this race last term off 3lb lower than today; out of sorts this April-July, with cheekpieces tried on last occasion, but much more like it when blinkers were given a go at Bangor one month ago and he came second of five to Ernest Gray; could improve on that if peak efforts are anything to go by. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 3 |

In career-best form when winning twice over today's trip in October but out of sorts this season; cheekpieces didn't help much at Uttoxeter six weeks ago; blinkers are tried here; revival needed. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |

Trip/ground is ideal but that was also the case when he finished tailed off here 19 days ago after wind surgery; that was his third underwhelming run on the bounce; tongue-tie tried last time is joined by cheekpieces. |

28th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |

Back to the same mark off which he won on good ground over C&D just over a year ago and, next time out after a 5lb rise, he was going best in this when unseating two out; lost his way later on but there were positives to take from his fifth over C&D in May; could easily be in the shake-up. |
